On the New Ecclesiology by Rev. Damien Dutertre 2023
This chapter presents the changes made by Vatican II in the doctrine on the nature of the Church. This was accomplished by the introduction of an ecumenist theology of communion.
1. The development of ecclesiology in the authentic teaching of the Church.
One of the main points of focus, if not the principle one, of the Second Vatican Council, was ecclesiology, that is, the doctrine about the nature and properties of the Church herself. Throughout her history, the Church has solemnly defined, particularly in ecumenical councils, numerous points of doctrine concerning the mystery of the Blessed Trinity, concerning Christ, concerning Our Blessed Lady, concerning original sin, justification, the sacraments, and many other mysteries of our Catholic Faith.
